Bab 1561: No Longer Just a Vessel

Levin Cloud immediately tried to pull Thueban to his side by extending his arms that turned into roots. The Distorted God Apophis has already sensed that something or someone around it was lurking. Levin Cloud could have gotten Thueban earlier, but she was already being grasped by invisible parts of the Distorted God Apophis's body.

Levin Cloud knew that he would not be able to save the poor girl and attempted to kill her in that instance. It seems that the Distorted God Apophis sensed the killing intent that the hidden being has directed towards its vessel. The Distorted God Apophis defended Thueban from getting impaled by Levin Cloud but that does not mean she was safe.
